CBS cited the head of detectives for Nicaragua's National Police force, Glenda Zavala, as saying that Toth, 31, was detained near the Honduran border.

Authorities said Toth was living under an assumed name.

Officials at Washington National Cathedral’s exclusive Beauvoir elementary school in 2008 found sexually explicit photographs of a student on a camera assigned to Toth.

They escorted him off campus and he had not been seen since.

He was added to the FBI's most-wanted list in April 2012 for allegedly possessing and producing child pornography, the Associated Press wrote, noting that the list is normally reserved for people sought in connection with violent crimes or terrorism.
